Would like to do a secondary decat on my Vanquish but reluctant to pay £500+ for 2 bits of straight pipe with flanges. :-(
Anyone got suggestions for a 'lower cost supplier' ?

Cheers

Maybe used on ebay or a local exhaust place could weld some up cheaper ?

All the exhaust suppliers I know of are £500 or more for 2 stainless bits of pipe with flanges

Cut a deal with your AM dealer to supply and fit. As cheap or cheaper than the indies, and at least you get AM expensive bits of pipe with an AM invoice.

I just got my local exhaust fitter to do it but think you may be lucky to get under £500

I thought the Vanquish came with decats by factory, no?

No - It's the 'S' that doesn't have secondary cats

To put into perspective, I just recently sold my used Quicksilver decat pipes on a popular auction website for £400. So you may struggle to get something for significant lower cost.

I know this is an old thread but some Vanquish owners may find this useful. I've just had some custom made secondary de-cat pipes fitted to my 2015 Vanquish.
Corton-Miller near Boston in Lincolnshire is the company I used. Having spoken to Ben Miller (the owner) , I was confident and happy to proceed in the fact that they would provide a quality product, especially on the basis that they already make custom parts for race and performance road cars.I was supplied photos along the way of how they were being made and fitted, and was extremly happy with the end result. The sound was great before but now it is fantastic, especially around the 4000rpm mark, with some lovely noises on the over-run.
All-in-all the best £450 I've spent this year.

The most cost effective secondary cats I could find were from an AM dealer themselves just over £600 and because its a genuine AM part if you have AM warranty still covered so informed by the AM dealer supplying.

Fitting took me less than 30 mins so an AM dealer may look at £100 to fit.

I reckon you could get one made up if you know a guy - no sweat.

Any decent exhaust supplier will make them up for you at reasonable price - it's only a couple of straight pipes.
